Who is the Brooklyn Nets' untouchable player heading into the offseason?
This is going to be a very defining offseason for the Brooklyn Nets. Do they want to be buyers? Sellers? Sit on their hands and move forward with a similar roster?
"Noah Clowney, last summer's No. 21 pick, averaged just 5.8 points and 3.5 rebounds across 23 NBA outings as a rookie. He'd be a afterthought in untouchable talks on virtually any other team," Buckley wrote. "In Brooklyn, though, he just might hold that status, which honestly says less about his potential than it does the dearth of realistic candidates around him."
"The Nets have tried positioning Mikal Bridges as untouchable, but that just doesn't pass the smell test. Not when he's a 27-year-old non-star on a team that nearly finished 20 games below .500," Buckley continued. "Cam Thomas feels like the only other possibility, yet if Brooklyn takes a big swing on a scoring guard like Donovan Mitchell or Trae Young this offseason, Thomas would almost certainly be involved in that exchange," Buckley said.
